SummaryResumen

President Ulises Heureaux called a cabinet meeting to consider declaring war against Haiti over a longstanding dispute regarding an 1875-1876 treaty, under which Haiti leased Dominican territory and agreed to pay an annual fee of $150,000 but now owes over $2,600,000. While Haiti wishes to end the agreement while retaining the land due to suffering revenues from duty-free Dominican imports, Dominican consul generals Francisco Ponte Vasquez and Manual De J. Galvan stated they received no official word of an outbreak or invasion, though they acknowledged trouble was brewing.

El presidente Ulises Heureaux convocó una reunión de gabinete para considerar una declaración de guerra contra Haití debido a una prolongada disputa sobre un tratado de 1875-1876, según el cual Haití arrendaba territorio dominicano y se comprometía a pagar una cuota anual de 150.000 dólares, pero ahora adeuda más de 2.600.000 dólares. Aunque Haití desea dar por terminado el acuerdo conservando al mismo tiempo la tierra debido a las pérdidas de ingresos provocadas por las importaciones dominicanas libres de aranceles, los cónsules generales dominicanos Francisco Ponte Vásquez y Manuel de J. Galván declararon que no habían recibido notificación oficial de un estallido armado o invasión, si bien reconocieron que se avecinaban problemas.
